Photographer Ryan Bolger wrote a nifty testimony about the new iPhone 4S and the amazing capabilities of its built-in camera, acknowledging that Steve Jobs has re-invented photography.

Over at RJB Imagery, the first 200 (or so) photos you’ll find have been shot and edited on the iPhone 4S, according to tipb.com.

The photographer is friends with the blog’s editorial staff, and he decided to share a story with the rest of the world about the iPhone 4S and how it makes a truly wonderful camera for professionals and amateurs alike.

Reproduced below is Ryan’s testimony, complete with a sincere word of appreciation for the late Apple co-founder, Steve Jobs.

"So I’ve been holding out for years. I’ve had an upgrade ever since the original iphone came out & I decided that I was going to wait until the camera was where I wanted it & knew it could be. The iPhone 4S has changed my creative life in a very big way. The App Store has also opened up my eyes to a whole new creative & visual world. The ability to capture, ratify, & share my creative life with a few simple taps has helped me in my quest of trying to make the world a better place through my art.

Within the first week of my new marriage to this phone I took over 2,000 photographs. I’m amazed at the detail & the versatility of the iPhone 4S’s camera. I’ve even used it on some paid client assignments. That’s how much I trust it as a professional photographer.

I just read an article last night that photography was one of the things Steve Jobs aimed to re-invent. As a guy whose life revolves around photography and has since childhood, you’ve already done this Sir. So thank you Steve Jobs and thank you Apple."
